Should Magical Merchant shuffle even if no appropriate card is revealed?✓
Magical Merchant resolves without revealing a Spell/Trap.
Yes. The Deck should be shuffled after revealing cards, even if none are added to hand.
If I resolve Magical Merchant while Thunder King Rai-Oh is face-up, do I still excavate, and where does the Spell/Trap go?✓
You activate Magical Merchant's effect while your opponent controls Thunder King Rai-Oh.
You still excavate as usual, but you cannot add the Spell/Trap to your hand. The revealed Spell/Trap is sent to the Graveyard, along with the excavated monsters.
